Patent abstract
Various systems and methods for performing bit indexed explicit replication (BIER). For example, one method involves receiving a link layer protocol frame at a network device. The link layer protocol frame includes a MAC address that identifies the link layer protocol frame as a being a multicast frame. The method then involves selecting a subset of ports included on the network device and forwarding the link layer protocol frame to only the selected subset of ports.
